Painted Poppies - Facebook Live Cards 


Here are the cards I made on yesterday's Facebook live.

I've added a photo listing the card sizes I used and also a couple of photos showing how I got the stamps in a straight line and how to punch out the section that becomes raised.

Hope everyone  is keeping safe and doing lots of crafting to pass the time.

More Bears !

EMBOSSED BABY BEAR This is clearly my favourite stamp set at the moment and I have been trying out lots of different colour combinations and techniques. Here are the finished cards and underneath I have done a step by step photo guide - which is a first for me. The bear is stamped in smoky slate and dapper denim, sponged in marina mist.  Bear is stamped in soft suede and early espresso and sponged with peekaboo peach. Here are my supplies all laid out First I stamped image no 2 of the stamp set on whisper white in pink pirouette. Remember to use your piercing mat or other foam pad underneath any photopolymer stamp sets so you get a good image. Then I stamped image no 3 of the set with melon mambo. It does take a bit of practice to line the stamps up so practice a few times first on scrap paper. I find it best to make sure the bear's bottom and the gap between arms and body are lined up. Then finally use image no 1 and versamark to stamp

Online Class - Making Vellum Cards

Image
Thursday 16th July Today I'll be demonstrating how to make these pretty cards using vellum as a base. 1) Cut your A4 vellum to 10cm wide \nd then score along the long side at 14.9cm , 2) Cut 4 pieces of DSP to 10 cm wide x 7.5 cm long.  Take 2 pieces of paper, put the sides you do not want showing together and trim on the diagonal. TIP - make sure your paper is facing the correct way.   3) Stick the paper to the bottom of the front and back of the card and then add the insides making sure everything aligns nicely. 4) Decorate as required - I have used The Forever Greenery Bundle for the papers and die cuts.
